  1. Ali Allah ,in reference to this topic I would like to add a couple of related points ,in one of Pir Saderddin Ginan ,it starts Ali Ne Allah Kari Janjo Ama Sak Ma Lavso Lagar ,translated as Believe Ali as Allah and don’t doubt that at all,then there is another Ginan Partak pater ne parkhi ne prame pujo ,if somebody can get these two Ginans translated into English , by Tariqua Board I am sure there are many more ,that would throw more light and elucidates the subject matter in greater details , jamat will appreciate deeply and that would give us more info ,but then again Pir Saderddin was Pir Saderddin ,a highly elevated Ruhani,far far far above us spiritually .These are of course my thoughts ,
